DESCENDANTS OF OWEN DAUGHERTY

If you are a descendant of Owen Daugherty I, arrived in Norfolk, VA, in 1673, or of Owen Daugherty II, III, IV?, from Craven County, NC, this is for you.

I am writing a book, tracing the history of the descendants of this family.There is a group of about 25 other folks who are helping.I have so far finished the chapters on the Virginia and North Carolina generations.And I have told what I could about the first generation of the family that remained in NC while the other half of the family migrated to Kentucky.I am now working on the chapter about the first generation in Kentucky.From here on out, I may have to jockey back and forth between the NC family and the KY family.It depends on how much information I can find about those who stayed in NC.

What I need from you is this:If you know of family reunions--anywhere in the US--of descendants of this line, please let me know where and when.I will travel to these reunions at my own expense to show folks what is done so far and to talk to them about whether they want to order one of these books or not.Publishing family history books is extremely expensive.We're going to try to put out an attractive book, with extensive and well-documented information.But we will have to have orders up front to be able to pay for publishing the book.

So please, let me know about your family reunions, if you think this might be of interest to you and your extended family.
